Dutch agency admits mistakes July 6, 2010

The Hague – A leading Dutch environmental agency, taking the blame for one of the glaring errors that undermined the credibility of a seminal UN report on climate change, said it has discovered more small mistakes and urged the panel to be more careful.

But the review released on Monday by the Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency claimed that none of the errors affected the fundamental conclusion by UN panel of scientists: that global warming caused by humans already is happening and is threatening the lives and well-being of millions of people.

Mistakes discovered in the 3 000-page report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change last year fed into an atmosphere of skepticism over the reliability of climate scientists who have been warning for many years that human-induced emissions of greenhouse gases could have catastrophic consequences, including rising sea levels, drought and the extinction of nearly one-third of the Earth’s species.

They were careful. They were extremely careful. These mistakes were not mistakes at all, they were statements which were carefully crafted and intentionally included in the AR4 report because they were so alarmist and supported the IPCC claims. These wild claims were designed to scare the reader and it worked, but only after the failure of Copenhagen was it safe for scientists to criticize the AR4 report. For 3 long years these scientists remained silent, but not after Copenhagen. Then the house of cards fell. Pachauri must resign and the UN IPCC must be disbanded.

The problem is that the UN’s IPCC and well-funded climatologists became advocates for CO2-induced global warming, instead of operating with the absence of any bias – as is required for any successful scientific investigation.

There is a widespread and growing sense of unease in our society today, fueled in part by the Climategate revelation that climate scientists would manipulate and hide experimental data in exchange for research grants.

Climate scientists copied these “tricks” from the space science community’s successful strategy in dealing with unwanted findings from the 1969 Apollo Moon Mission [1] and the 1995 Galileo Mission to Jupiter [2]:

The mistrust extends far beyond the global climate warming scare, and even beyond the physical sciences into the political arena. The “Tea Party” is a response to the perception of tyrannical government decisions.

“These mistakes were not mistakes at all, they were statements which were carefully crafted and intentionally included in the AR4 report because they were so alarmist and supported the IPCC claims.”

An international alliance of politicians and the scientific-technological elite (The UN’s IPCC, the National Academy of Sciences, the Norwegian Nobel Prize Committee, Science, Nature, BBC, PBS, CBS and other major news outlets) ignored this warning from President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s farewell address on 17 Jan 1961:

“The prospect of domination of the nation’s scholars by Federal employment, project allocations, and the power of money is ever present – and is gravely to be regarded.

Yet, in holding scientific research and discovery in respect, as we should, we must also be alert to the equal and opposite danger that public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite.”

Their mistakes about global warming, about neutron repulsion, and about Earth being heated by Hydrogen-fusion are not mistakes at all.
